    REAR END QUESTION

    I think the older F Superdutys had the dana 80 rear axle in them, same as GM was using on the old 3500hd. They ran massive rear disc brakes though, 15in I think.

    Max towing weight

    I see guys who haul more weight than the factory says you can, is it legal? If GM gives you a GCWR of 23,000 can I register the truck and trailer for say 35,000 GCWR if the trailer is rated for it and I don't exceed the axle ratings on the door and have the proper lic?
